You mean something like this???  See the POV code in povray.text.scene-files
under the subject "Curved Text for Handler."

Eric, didn't you post a series named "Some fun with fonts" in p.b.a.
quite a #while ago? They demonstrated some cute animation techniques.

Just keeping my fingertips busy :)

Yep... that was me.  Little animations of my name spinning, waving in the
breeze, etc.  They were my first attempts at animation.

Of all the ways of keeping your fingers busy, posting here is fairly
harmless, which is a good thing (I haven't posted here in a while... is this
where I make some slightly sinister but humorous and good-natured remark
questioning what is keeping Ken's fingers busy and offering a few vile and
repulsive guesses?).
